We booked this online and it was less than 30., way cheaper than the ship. There was tons of seaweed which was nasty and stinky. However, we saw great fish, an eagle ray, and lots of turtles, which made it worthwhile. Took a taxi to Krazy Lobster beach; they do not charge for loungers and umbrellas. We ate tacos which weren't very good but they didn't make us sick. Read Less

Costa Maya – Catamaran Cruise and Snorkel. This was a great snorkel excursion. The crew, dressed in pirate outfits, were great! The catamaran was “o.k.”, there was a forward net to sit on and there was free soda and beer (after snorkeling). The crew divided the group in to beginners, intermediate, and advanced snorkelers. For the beginners, they really took a lot of time and effort to make sure everyone had a great and safe experience. For the advanced group, they guide moved the group over the maximum amount of reef and then turned us loose at the end. The reef was beautiful with lots of tropical fish. There was a lot of Saragossa seaweed at point (common in the area). Read Less

Booked a day pass at the Yaya Beach Club. Had an hour-long snorkeling excursion where we got to see some sea-life and sea turtles.
The beach club's lounges were excellent and the dining area was excellent, but we were constantly harassed by beach vendors and saying "no thank you" about every five minutes. Read Less

We did the catamaran/snorkeling excursion. The tour guide "pirates" were a lot of fun. They took the time to fully explain how to snorkel and broke us up into beginners and experienced snorkelers. They were so patient and kind to those who were scared. I would do this one again. Read Less

We took the Barrier Reef Snorkel excursion. The ride out was about 45 minutes and very nice. Big boat and friendly people. The reef was beautiful! the water awesome.
The snorkeling was not so great. It had rained the week before and the water was a little cloudy and not much to see. I think it would be worth trying again but i'd check the weather patterns from the previous 4-5 days. The people who hosted the excursion were very nice. Read Less

Only one spirit felt sufficiently comfortable in the water to attempt this. Conditions were rough and even strong swimmers seemed to be struggling. The 'pirates' who organised it were very capable and friendly.

We booked Costa Maya Reef Snorkeling through Costco / Shore Excursions Group. Toucan Tours did a great job, greeting us shortly after we exited the port gates, providing shuttles for the short ride to/from the beach and setting us up with Rafael and Roberto. We went out on a small boat as with our family (5 people), anchored just off the reef and were taken on an extended snorkel tour that featured a handful of large sea turtles in their natural environment. Nothing fancy, but it was great having a guided personalized tour of the reef for the family. Read Less
